Some employers were happy with merely the quality of paper of my CV. Gave a good first impression, although they did direct me to a sign up link. It is worth noting that they were small businesses, though

Employment fairs are fun
Make something go wrong, then
I think paid instances are fine. Provided they actually provide more reliability, etc. although right now, many free instances are reliable enough. And a subscription cost to run your own single or friend group instance probably wouldn’t be much either.
Although I could see a paid service which runs an instance for you, but you get to use your own domain name and such. Kind of like those Minecraft hosting services. Okay, I’m on another tangent.
Housing, job availability and potential erasure of culture. I think it depends on what migrants you let in though. Also some groups forming bubbles and refusing to integrate as well.
Personally though, I think kids watching american media on their mum’s ipads is a greater risk to our culture than Mohammed and his family down the street
Also, some immigrants are more racist than white people. Which is sometimes kind of funny. Although my white friend got beat up in Bradford, so sometimes it isn’t.
My grandfather did the same thing but with a Church lol
The tankies would be in the garden trying to start a commune
I agree with you. St Patrick’s day is basically loved because it was a Holy Day during Lent - meaning people were able to break their fast. For me - a Protestant living in Northern Ireland - it always means a somewhat special Church service. I remember I was in Poland once on Halloween and a bunch of Churches were holding special masses. Halloween is the Eve of All Saint’s Day in Western Christianity. Ever since I chose to follow Christianity more, I have always viewed Christmas with the religious aspect, going to carol services, lighting candles at midnight, etc. But same cannot be said about society. St Valentine’s day is also Christian in origin, although I’ve never seen it that way. I guess it’s just the effect of a Christian society secularising. I believe a similar thing is actually happening on Eid in countries like Turkiye as well. Also with similar stuff in Japan.
Oh gosh what happened to the puppy-
Because he choked?
Samhain most likely didn’t have any religious significance. The word likely just means “summer’s end” and it wouldn’t have fallen on the 31st of October as the Celts used a lunar-solar calendar
The date of Yule was adjusted to coincide with Christmas and Saturnalia was between the 17th and 23rd of December
This is true. Although many shelters disallow drug taking or alcohol
Grew up in an Evangelical Baptist household in the UK. We always regarded Easter is the most important and still do. The reason is because Easter is the resurrection - which was a more important event than the Incarnation. It’s like celebrating the beginning of a project vs it’s completion.
Christmas is more culturally relevant because it involves buying gifts and capitalism is gonna capitalism
St Patrick’s day and Halloween are Christian 😎
Technically, anyone could make their own religion. Although I think pagans are still not obscure enough to not plan anything on the solstices anyway.
As a Christian, I find Easter to be the most important, followed by Christmas. However Easter kind of encompasses Holy Week (technically that’s before Easter tbf) mainly Maundy Thursday and Good Friday, the only weekdays involved as Easter is always a Sunday.
Did his father choke?
A reward if you manage to take cover
I like the European parts of Europe
My great grandfather would have shot them. He did shoot them. For King and Country. And I’m proud of this fact 😎🇬🇧
